Nail trends: what are the ones for autumn 2024?

The nail trends for fall spotlight many colors, from deep shades of red—burgundy, cherry, as long as it's rich—to green. Among the trending nails for 2024, we've seen the french manicure making a comeback, and it's here to stay. Of course, with a few tweaks to turn this classic into a true trendsetter. Below, a journey through the season’s trends, starting with a chapter entirely dedicated to the allure of sparkle.

Fall 2024 Nail Trends: Focus on Light

Who says brightness is only for spring and summer? Fall 2024 is the perfect backdrop to bring some shine to your nails. Naturally, to highlight our love for this season, we'll be using deep shades like teal or tones that set the stage for the upcoming holiday season, such as gold. You can go for full-on sparkle on all your nails, or just a few, perhaps alternating with a french manicure.

Nail Trends: What's Next for French Manicure?

The french manicure will remain popular throughout fall 2024. Adapting to a variety of different styles, it continues to hold its place as a timeless classic while showing it can still reinvent itself. The tortoiseshell french is a top pick: trendy, it plays with brown tones, making it the perfect detail to complete outfits that incorporate at least a few of the many shades of this color, which will likely be everywhere. Alternatively, you can opt for animal print styles. Since neutral tones are still front and center, there's a great opportunity to pair them with the shades of your outfits.

Nail Color Trends: Red, Brown, Green

Dark red transitions from the wardrobe to the nails. In a solid color, it's incredibly refined, adding elegance to short nails while making long ones the absolute stars of any look. Because it's such a bold shade, if used in its pure form without designs, it works wonderfully as the color for all your nails, making the most of its impact. If you prefer to incorporate cherry red into a nail art design, it pairs beautifully with delicate pink and hints of gold. The intensity of the red isn't overshadowed by other shades but instead enhanced by the softness of pink and the minimalist touch of subtle gold accents.

The delicious milk chocolate shade is perfect for embracing brown, which, as we've seen with the tortoiseshell french, is incredibly versatile. It pairs beautifully with soft pink, creating a combination that works well both in fashion and nail art. Gold can once again play its part, adding an extra touch of elegance to an already striking combination. The tortoiseshell effect continues to amaze us, not only as a twist on the french manicure but also as a style that covers the entire nail. It pairs well with solid brown shades, making it a source of inspiration for many nail art designs.

It's the Season of Green

Finally, let's focus on green, the true trend color of fall 2024. From olive to sage, it's the must-try shade of the season, ready to accompany you in all its variations through to the end of autumn.
